Padonis Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 The map of Normandy, for which I have waited so long, has been released more than a month ago. For this map, there is no single patch for almost a month. As you know, the map has many problems with smoothness and optimization. Do you know what's going on with this topic and when will we receive any information/update? :cry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vitormouraa Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 The fact that we haven't seen any update for a month doesn't mean they aren't working on it. It just depends on internal testing, ED is always working on new features and improvements, and like any software, sometimes they find new bugs which need to be fixed. I'm pretty sure the next update will be huge. SplashOneGaming Discord https://splashonegaming.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PicksKing Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 A DCS 2.1 update was planned to be released today but it was delayed to friday. They had some issues. I guess this update also contains fixes and improvements for the normandy. As well as a new spitfire campaign.

Padonis Posted July 26, 2017 Author Share Posted July 26, 2017 The new spitfire campaign, without the repair of Normandy completely nothing causes, only disappointment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
razo+r Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 I think fixing the new graphic engine has a bit more priority than fixing normandy since that map is imo quite good in shape Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REDEYE_CVW-66 Posted July 26, 2017 Share Posted July 26, 2017 Although I guess it will be excellent (to Wags and Bunyaps credit), releasing a Spitfire close-support campaign without bombs and without working (visual) flak seems like an odd choice. I'm curious to see what they have in mind, alhtough as a Spitfire nut I will obviously insta-buy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ED Team BIGNEWY Posted July 26, 2017 ED Team Share Posted July 26, 2017 2.1 update was due today, some critical bugs have postponed it, the goal is for Friday, but it depends on how fast the bugs are smashed.

Padonis Posted July 26, 2017 Author Share Posted July 26, 2017 (edited) I am afraid that when a new Caucasus map appears, all maps will go to DCS 2.1. DCS 1.5 will no longer exist. And in Caucasus DCS 2.1 I can fly like in Normandy out. I mean - practically nothing at all. I hope I'm wrong.

And in Caucasus DCS 2.1 I can fly like in Normandy out. I mean - practically nothing at all. I hope I'm wrong. Temporarily it would be bad. But then the team could focus on just one version and fix it much more easily. Not to mention that we wouldn't need to swap between versions, Multiplayer wouldn't be split anymore, etc... I'm saying this with 1.5 running like a dream with 90 FPS and 2.1 being hardly playable. Facebook Instagram YouTube Discord Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Padonis Posted July 27, 2017 Author Share Posted July 27, 2017 (edited) For NTTR or Normandy? To Normandy I have to lower my settings. Finally, the graphics settings should be the same for all maps.

drPhibes Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 You can agree until you turn blue in the face, but that doesn't change the fact that updates won't be released until they are ready for release. Contrary to what some seem to believe, fixing bugs isn't simply done by a magic code generator or automatic debugger. Pushing out half-finished fixes usually does more harm than good.

Reflected Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 MAybe it was just a dream but I remember reading somewhere that they were planning an update for this Wednesday, but will only be released today due to some issues.

NeilWillis Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 Yes, patience is the key. Remember that Normandy remains an Alpha release, so it is purely a development platform, and we will only see updates when there is something tried and tested, and brings something of substance to the project. Someone stated earlier that 1.5 will disappear when 2.5 comes along. Strictly speaking, it will remain extant, but unsupported going forwards, so there will be nothing stopping you from retaining that branch, and using it. It will just no longer be part of the update stream, and new modules most likely won't find their way onto that version of DCS World. But of course with the new Caucasus map and it's leap forwards in visuals, it will soon become totally redundant. Personally, I hope ED are pushing hard for the release of 2.5, and the Normandy map will be side lined to a degree. Once 2.5 appears, bugs are squashed and becomes the standard, we will benefit in a number of ways. The 3rd party devs will have something concrete to work with, so perhaps the delayed modules will start to reach their final state. Bottom line, just let ED continue to work on things, and don't expect to see weekly or even monthly updates. Something much better may be just around the corner. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
